About the Book

After the Alamo and the Civil War, the frontier of Texas was a wild place, with only a few good men to keep the peace: the Texas Rangers. Homesteaders, ranchers and the U.S. Army counted on the Rangers to protect the land from marauding Indians and Mexican greaser gangs. Talon Finley wants revenge, but more importantly, justice. Just a kid himself, he turns his skill training horses and a penchant for integrity into a stint as a Texas Ranger. In the vast expanse of the new frontier, from Texas to the Rockies, Talon and his trusted horse, Sam, take on trouble wherever they find it. T. T. Finley, Talon's twin sister, was raised on a ranch in Wyoming. She heads east to attend finishing school, with a gun sewn into her petticoats. A crack shot, she foils a train robbery, uncovers a conspiracy of cattle rustlers, thieves and murderers... and makes the best doughnuts on either side of the Mississippi. Pogonip, the ice-fog condition prevalent in canyons in the old west, foreshadows the chilling reality and danger of a quest to make things right, by a boy who would become a man and a girl who discovers her true purpose.
About the Author: O'Steve O'Steve has conducted research into the 19th century Old West. His fascination with all things TEXAS and the time of the post Civil War expansion was the impetus for this book. Pogonip is the first in a series of novels depicting this interesting time in American history. Many hours of research and a love for these characters developed during the writing of this book. In a period of less than 20 years, we were fighting the Indians, expanding the territorial boundaries, and at the same time, witnessing the birth of electricity, telephone and other earth shattering inventions of the Victorian age. Driven to demonstrate this dichotomy of a young country, O'Steve has created parallel story lines that incorporate the experiences of a young Texas Ranger and his twin sister, who is introduced to modern society of the time. O'Steve resides in Memphis, TN. An accomplished artist and writer, he delivers a colorful prose, with an emphasis on authenticity. Gritty, but not dirty, Pogonip can be a favorite of readers, both old and young.
